Both candidates and independent campaign organizations are required to report their fundraising. In the report for the third quarter of this year, the last before the midterm elections to Congress on November 3, Democrats dominate, according to a compilation by Punchbowl News.
In six states considered crucial in the race for the Senate, Democratic candidates raised between three and six times as much as their Republican counterparts. A similar pattern is evident in the House of Representatives elections. Democratic candidates dominate, not least when it comes to grassroots donations.
In the other corner is the world's richest man, Elon Musk, who has donated at least the equivalent of SEK 2.8 billion to Republican campaign organizations this quarter alone.
